PET-FRIENDLY EVENTS FOR CATS, DOGS AND THEIR OWNERS

We love hosting, sponsoring and participating in all the great events for pets around the country that benefit dogs, cats and the people who care for them. From donating food and supplies to volunteering our time, we’re always looking for ways to get involved! With so many fun and beneficial events taking place each year, we try to be part of as many as we can!

ZOOLIGHTS AT THE OAKLAND ZOO

A HOLIDAY TRADITION IN OAKLAND

By Nature® was thrilled to be a sponsor of the Oakland Zoo’s annual ZOOLights event, held through the month of December to celebrate the holidays and animals with lights, activities, shows and food. Different attractions with an animal theme were offered each night throughout the event, including our booth with fun giveaways and prizes.

BARK IN THE PARK

20 YEARS OF DOG GONE FUN!

Bark in the Park, held in San Jose, CA, is the largest dog festival in the United States with more than 15,000 dog lovers and 3,900 dogs. With contests, a dog agility course, demonstrations of specialized dog training and more than 75 vendors with dog-specific goods and services, By Nature was excited to sponsor and be part of this tail-wagging good time. Plus, the money raised benefited local community and pet-focused organizations.

PET ROCK FESTIVAL

THEY CAN’T TALK SO WE WILL

By Nature was a proud sponsor of the Pet Rock Festival, held in September 2015 in Leicester, MA. This great event promotes kindness to animals and features animal welfare organizations, breed rescues and shelters.
